Journey

We went to contest the other day
And the judges said we stunk.
But I would have to disagree
That what we did was junk.

We spent 3 months just practicing
For the pieces we would play.
We felt ourselves improve a bit
Each and every day.

When we started out this year
No one played a scale.
Now we play all twelve of them
Before the Bach Chorales.

It doesn't matter what they say
With their ridicule and scorn.
The judges don't mean squat to us
'Cause we finally played our horns.
